At Jamii, we believe in the power of the arts to bring people together, spark meaningful conversations, and build a stronger, more connected community. Since 2011, we’ve created spaces where creativity flourishes, stories are shared, and people of all ages and backgrounds feel seen, heard, and inspired. Whether it’s a mural co-created by neighbours, a youth-led storytelling project, or an outdoor performance that turns a familiar street into a stage, our work transforms everyday spaces into places of connection and expression.

​

Through deep community relationships and collaborations with artists from Toronto and beyond, we design programs that are not only engaging but also deeply responsive to the people we serve. Our commitment to accessibility means that all of our programs are free, ensuring that financial barriers never stand in the way of participation in arts. From intergenerational workshops that bring youth and elders together to initiatives that amplify diverse voices, every project is a reflection of the rich, evolving identity of our neighbourhood.

Our impact goes beyond numbers—it’s in the friendships formed at a workshop, the sense of belonging felt at a performance, and the lasting memories created through shared experiences. Whether it’s through live performances, hands-on art programs, or community-led projects, we are committed to fostering social cohesion and celebrating the voices of our neighbourhood.

​

As we continue to grow, we remain rooted in our core values: care, inclusivity, curiosity, and collaboration. Every program we offer is designed with intention, ensuring that art is not just something to observe but something to actively participate in.
